The Mangalorean fish chilly fry too is a must-have. Vegetarians will have to stick to kebabs and barbeque made using potato, cauliflower or cottage cheese.

The restaurant’s menu is a mix of international and regional ideas such as warm green apple-smoked scarmoza soup, Sri Lankan spiced chicken poi, rava crusted bombil with mango chutney and the prawn pakoras.
